Normally, I do Thursdays, but I needed to switch with Ian St. Clair. When I logged on to pick a clip from the show to cover DaeSean Hamilton Jersey , I realized, it might be very difficult for me to decide on which clip to write up. So, I am using them all.Obviously, with the passing of Pat Bowlen, the outpouring of support and well wishes has been a big part of today. Mr. B. meant so much to so many as owner of the Denver Broncos. The guest list included Broncos greats like Terrell Davis, Mike Shanahan, and Bill Romanowski, along with former Broncos GM Ted Sundquist, Ryan Edwards (who was on assignment), Steve Atwater, Rick Lewis Josey Jewell Jersey , and our own Jefferey Essary. With all those guests, there was a common theme running through the show. Everyone loved Mr. B. When asked how he was doing, Romo said the news crushed him. Each guest had a unique story to tell about Mr. B. but each story made it clear how much the guests admired him. Terrell Davis described him as cool. Romo talked about his passion for winning. Shanahan talked about his competitiveness and his determination to win. Atwater called him a wonderful leader. The descriptions of Pat Bowlen point to the reason the Denver Broncos have been a model of greatness in his tenure as owner, but they also point to his love for his people.Pat Bowlen spent an NFL career building relationships, and caring for the people who worked for him. He demanded greatness, and they wanted to win for him. In his biggest moments he was always unselfish, and pointed to others for credit.There is no doubt that the Denver Broncos, and all of Broncos Country were made better by having Pat Bowlen as an owner. Indeed, the NFL will forever be grateful for what he meant to the league. Bonus ListenHave a listen to Jeffery Essary and his perspective on what Pat Bowlen meant to all of Broncos Country. While trying to work out a new contract with the Broncos earlier this year, cornerback Chris Harris expressed interest in a trade if the Broncos weren’t willing to meet his financial demands.The two sides eventually came together on a revised deal for this season that left Harris on track to become a free agent after this season. He said he’s happy with how things worked out and said on NFL Network Wednesday that it’s “a relief” to be able to focus on football after all of the contract talk.When it comes to football, many people have expressed a dim outlook for the Broncos in the AFC West thanks to the presence of the Chiefs and Chargers. Harris acknowledged the Broncos aren’t the favorites Isaac Yiadom Jersey , but said that works just fine for him because they’ll be able to take some teams by surprise.“The Chiefs are the team to beat right now,” Harris said. “They’ve won it, I think, the past three years so until somebody knocks them off they’re the team beat. I’m telling you right now, I like being the underdog right now. Teams are sleeping on us and so I like taking that approach this year. They’re going to have to wake up when we hit them in the mouth.”With the likes of Harris, Von Miller and Bradley Chubb on hand, the defense should be able to throw some haymakers this season. The chances of the Broncos overcoming expectations may come down to whether the offense can do the same.
